BETHEL — We enjoyed another all-star program at our meeting this week. We have had a quarterly “pandemic panel” where we have updates from a cross section of our communities. Rotarian and Superintendent of Schools, Dave Murphy, gave us an update on how our schools are faring – and it was all good news!
Jessie Seymour Perkins, ED of the Bethel Area Chamber shared what is going on in our business community. Guidelines are always shifting, and restrictions are slowly being lifted, which is good news. Loretta Powers, Bethel’s Town Manager, shared that the Town of Bethel is faring well, despite a recent closure of the town office due to a Covid scare.
Dr. Kevin Finley updated on the state of Covid locally and that the Bethel Family Health Center is starting to provide vaccines to their patients. Very informative presentation that drew a large crowd!

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
